Hi Chris,
I bought the LowePro CS60 bag from Elecraft, and with the Kx22 and GEMS
handle and cover on it, the KX2 fits fine in the bag. It is true that
the handles and cover stick up 1/2" farther than the knobs, but as you
point out, with the cover the knobs and display are protected, and the
CS60 bag still zips shut without any fuss. It is just my personal
preference, but given the LowePro bag is soft-sided and offers little
impact protection, I strongly prefer to have the GEMS cover in place
when traveling with the $800 KX2, it is inexpensive protection for sure!
All this being said, if we get enough requests for a heatsink without
the handles I am sure we can do it.
Cheers & 73,

Howie are you guys gonna make one without the protective handles? Just
wonderin.. its gonna be hard to stuff it into the stock bag, heatsink may fit
but definitely not the handles. I am sure they are great for added knob
protection just unfortunately at the expense of the travel footprint. not a
gripe.. just a friendly observation.
